You don’t know
What you’re talkin about
Don’t know exactly what you’re
Writin about…
You just put words on paper
That’s it…
You don’t have a meanin
Behind your pieces…
What are you tryin to tell your readers?
Are you a fake?
Maybe you’re not the poetess
I thought you were….
Cos you be pennin stuff without
Soul…..
~
How about take your harsh criticism
And shut in your ass….
I do know what I’m talkin about….
I know what I’m writin about..
I’ve been writin poetry since the age of 12….
Who the fuck are you?
Tellin me I’m not a poetess
Motherfucker, I am a poetess
You ain’t gotta read my words
Do they trigger your nerves?
Oh well,
And what do you mean
I don’t have a meanin….
I have a meanin behind my dark brown eyes…
A meanin behind my smiles
Some of my poems don’t have a meanin…
I think
You don’t like my voice….
I think
You don’t like the way i speak up…
About difficult topics…
You told me there are people who feel uncomfortable
Readin poetic lines…
It’s another reason why poetry isn’t that popular
Cos poets speak the truth….
Audience doesn’t like the that, poets were told to
Write somethin else, to flow somethin else on the mic..
Some oblige, others refuse…
Too many human beings hate the messenger…
They don’t wanna hear it, but they are grateful for
A voice….I’m like you hate when people say it, though
You still have no ears…
And you got a lot of nerve to
Tell me I got no soul in my poems…
I will say fuck you…talkin about I
Ain’t got no feelings,
Did I mention I write since I was a kid?
I got compassion for poetry…
You don’t tell anyone that they don’t have soul
When they’ve been writin for decades….
And you don’t write everyday…
I will say fuck you……
I’m offended…
Who the fuck do you think you are?
Who the fuck are you?
You’re not a writer…
You don’t carry a notebook and pen
Each day….
I don’t see your iPad or phone to type down
Your thoughts
But I ain’t got no soul….
How about this,
Don’t read my poetry anymore
You ain’t invited to skim through my metaphors…
Since I ain’t got no soul….
I’m not your favorite poetess…
Don’t brag about me…
Go to another poet that suits you, ok?
Can you do that please?
You talkin about my poems that have no feelin,
No vibe…like I should entertain my words for you…
Fuck no, get out of here….
Bye….

BLACK FACES IN HIGH PLACES WON'T SAVE US!
University prepares us for life. And professor Ruha Benjamin didn't hold back when talking to graduating students in Atlanta, Georgia. She told them: 'Black faces in high places won't save us.' The message being, don't expect your rights to be defended by Black people holding professional, political or economic power.
Ruha gives the example of Linda Thomas-Greenfield, the US envoy to the United Nations. Yes, the woman who vetoes ceasefires in Gaza. She also takes aim at Black politicians running the city of Atlanta who support the creation of a 'cop city' and expansion of violent police forces that target Black youth.
We might add to her list Black mis-leaders such as Barack Obama, who oversaw US military operations across the African continent. Or maybe US Vice President Kamala Harris, who's built her career on the mass incarceration of Black and Brown youth and families.
Ruha's speech is cheered by students at Spelman College, a historically Black institution. She finishes by encouraging them to stand up for what's right, despite being labelled 'troublemakers' by authorities.
It's a refreshingly honest take on the real world. Is there anyone else you'd add to Ruha's list?
